Fillings (inlays/onlays)
- After decay and old filling material is removed…
- The individually manufactured ceramic will be fitted exactly.
- Depending on severity, the whole procedure will last between one and two hours.
Crowns
- For more heavily compromised teeth, a traditional treatment has been a crown restoration, which can take several separate appointments.
- Using the CEREC method, crown restoration is completed in a single appointment. No impressions, no temporary crowns – no need for a second injection.
- A treatment time of one to two hours is normal.
Veneers
- Malpositioned and discoloured teeth can be restored with porcelain veneers.
- Your tooth is adjusted and a thin layer of porcelain is bonded securely to your tooth.
- Perfect looks, perfect fit make a wonderful, natural smile – all in a single appointment.
